[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1055925, member: 249"] I've read that Hostess product sales were on the decline as consumers chose more healthier products to eat. In fact a lot of their key products were the epitome of unhealthy eating like twinkies, ho hos, ding dongs, and the rest. That being said, these products didn't have to die if the unions would have just made the necessary concessions as they were told they had to or they were out of a job. These workers, like so many other unionized workers, have voted themselves out of a job because of a mentality that these companies have vaults full of money that they just need to open up when this simply isn't the case. The money wasn't there, and they were told this multiple times, but they didn't care. Now I guess they can collect their 2 years worth of unemployment and maybe if they are lucky they can get to go to work at a non union workplace where they will see how the rest of the world gets by.
